Bio
Minda Aguhob is excited to be organizing the first TEDxBushwick. Her personal mission is to elevate the level of love in action in the world. She empowers people to synergize their collective genius with the most effective and loving leaders, projects and organizations, via this TEDx event.
Based in both New York City and San Francisco, Minda is leading a wearable tech venture, Peakfoqus, designing elegant timepieces for health & safety monitoring - and bringing the postwar generation to the mobile revolution.
Her work in Sandy Relief -- where Minda saw mediocre performance by large organizations and *amazing* performance by individual leaders with totally committed hearts and love -- motivated the founding of Love Performs, a social media video workshop for passionate people with purpose, who make things happen.
A former elite endurance athlete, Minda races for charity and has raised over $30,000 for rare cancer research, on behalf of her cousin Yvette Guerzon, who suffered from leukemia. Minda holds a masters degree in human development & psychology from Harvard University.
“Do not follow where the path may lead. Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson
